Hi my friends,
Wanted to update my P1000 but failed. Have read one article, using Zadig to write something to my phone, the first step was alright, but the second step, open windows terminal then run 'heimdall flash --kernel zImage', the blue tab as said didn't come out. Now when turn it on it is stuck at Samsung logo, could go to downloading modle but not recovery model. Both Odin and Kies cant recognise the phone no matter how much I have tried to set up the driver. Have been reading many articles on the web still couldnt find out the solution. Anybody could kindly help would be much appreciated.
While in download mode, Odin still doesn't recognise your tab?

Have tried 3,4 companies, none of them could fix it.
Send it to Samsung
I think it´s the only help u can get
You wanted to use Heimdall, so you used Zadig to install the drivers? That's fine, but if you then decide to use Odin, you'll need to install the Odin drivers first as Odin doesn't work with the Heimdall drivers. You can install the Odin drivers if you've installed Kies on your computer, it contains the driver Odin needs (on my computer it's in a folder called USB Driver). If you don't have installed Kies, installing it will install the drivers. If you don't want to install Kies, you should be able to find the package containing only the drivers on the Net.
After installing the drivers, reboot the computer. Then put the Tab in Download mode, connect it to the computer, and start Odin. With a bit of luck it will now recognise the Tab.

Thank you so much for your kindly reply. I tried to use heimdall but it keeps saying the package was wrong. Should I look for a correct package then use Heimdall to fix it? I have installed Kies, but it wont recognize my device, Odin doesnt neither. I just dont know how do I set up the driver, would you be kindly enough to give me a link? Lots of thanks.
Are the Heimdall drivers installed correctly? If so, and if you can find a Heimdall package that can be flashed, then that's good too. If you want to use Odin, and you haven't reinstalled the Kies drivers after using Heimdall, I found the Kies drivers in folder C:\Program Files\Kies\USB Driver, and the file was named SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones.exe. Just run it, and reboot your computer. Then switch off the Tab, and press and hold the On switch and Volume Down button until it starts in Download mode (the screen with the yellow text). Start Odin, and connect the Tab to the computer with the USB cable. Hopefully it will see the Tab (display the COM-port of the Tab). If it recognises the Tab, you can flash a new ROM.

If I recall correctly..I read somewhere here..that, If you wanted to use odin after you install hemidal..there is something that you must do first (delete or run a commands or something) before you can use odin..usually the instruction manual comes with the installer..or installed with hemidal itself..but, I don't know.. Maybe I'm wrong.. Because I never use hemidal before..

Odin will recognize your tab if you install the right drivers. On windows, it happens automatically, if you are connected to the net. As long as you can boot into download mode, you are safe. Dont worry, bricking a galaxy tab is very hard.

Try Odin 1 Click. You'll find it on here somewhere. It wil take you back to stock 2.1 Eclair. Then you can READ ABOUT flashing other ROMs and proceed from there.

im sorry but most of us can't even help you IF we want to The users of windows based PC's are greater in this forums compared to Macs. if there is drivers for mac, are they installed?
Since you only have a Mac, I would suggest installing Windows through Boot-Camp (included in Mac OSX) on a different partition. I read Galaxy S doesn't have drivers support for Mac OSX Leopart or later, not entirely sure if its true though, but I do have a MacBook Pro and had no success in finding a way to connect my phone to it by USB... Good thing I had a regular old Windows PC Desktop.
Then as Jack Man said, use Odin 1-Click found here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=731989
to reset your phone completely to factory settings, relatively simple to do as long as you read the instructions on that post. =)
Well since you only have a Mac and hiemidal is not see your phone i think your only option is to find a friend with a PC and give the Odin 1 click a try.

Sir, just in case, did you reboot after installing drivers and BEFORE you tried connecting the device? Also, did you check if Odin detected your device when its connected in Download mode?
yes, and thats what in trying to do, to get odin to detect my phone in download mode...
Ok, is your phone detected by the operating system? If it does, then try using this other Odin thread instead, this one however will restore it to Stock Samsung Galaxy with 2.3 Gingerbread.

Don't have to follow the rest of the instructions to root it just in case, but see if that version of Odin detects your phone.

What USB port are you using if ots a desktop computer. There are known issues using front usb, plug into the usb on the back of the tower.
Also, are you sure odin doesnt see it? I know windows doesnt like it, but start odin, put phone in download mode, connect to pc. What does odin show? Any connected devices?

As long as you can go to download mode, you are not bricked.
remember to have it charged for at least 4hrs.
Just connect it to Odin preferably at the same USB port as the one you used before.
Reboot it to download mode while data cable is connected, then try Odin.

I had the same problem when i changed laptop. So on my new machine, the PC would not recognize my P1000 in the download mode. I was running win xp.
The problem was that it wasn't able to automatically locate the drivers. No wonder it wasn't. The drivers aren't built in to xp driver cache. So here is what you need to do:
Download Samsun Kies from samsung website. Do a search on google and you'll get to it.
Once downloaded, install Samsung Kies. No need to run it or anything. Once downloaded, plug that tab in download mode to USB of PC, and it will get detected and the drivers will get installed.
I still have KIES installed, but i never used it, i just installed it for the drivers.
Let me know if this helped.

Hi Dude,
Instead of installing Kies on your XP or windonws 7 for only driver, you can install driver using below guide.
Go to Google and search as Galaxy Tab Driver and go...Click Modaco Website & then Download.

Use the firmware failed screen as download mode. The zadig driver only installs to one usb port, unlike Samsung drivers.
Im not sure what it is, but im guessing driver problems..i used another computer & install drivers and odin detected it as usual :/ my pc is having some issues with sam drivers thanks for the help though

Get New drivers. I personally install Kies mini for Captivate.
I'm trying to connect my S-5830L to my PC, and when I do, the phone charges, but there is no option to access mass storage.
It's recognized in Kies, I even update the phone with it, and a hidden removable disk appears when I connect the phone, yet I still can't access the storage.
I tried installing both the driving independently and via Kies.
There is no notification about it in the phone, and I have USB debugging turned on, and I also tried with it off
Anyone knows what I could be doing wrong?

Go to Recovery Mod and do a "Wipe Data/ Factory Reset" & "Wipe Cache Partition". That should pretty much solve the issue. But if the issue still exists, try flashing the stock rom using odin. Here is the link on how to install stock rom using odin along with all firmwares,

It appears I'll have to flash the stock rom, since wiping the data and cache didn't work.
But does it matter which version of ODIN I use?
The one I'm supposed to use doesn't recognize the phone, but the one I used for the Galaxy S4 and S2 do recognize the phone.

I completely agree with @amtdwan. It's most probably the drivers that's causing the problem. Updating/ reinstalling it will solve it
I removed the ones that Windows install automatically, and reinstalled the Kies ones, but each time I connect the phone to my PC, Windows install the drivers again.
Is that a problem?
Also, the USB utilities setting is greyed out. And I can't seem to open the file explorer with Kies, it says "drive not valid".

So does "Turn on USB Storage" pop up now in your phone when you connect it to PC? Did you use the firmware from the site I mentioned? This problem could be caused if you have a faulty firmware. Also make sure you have a working sdcard. Sometimes faulty sdcard also cause such errors. Last but no the least, you can use the USBMassStorage app I developed. For it to work, you need a rooted phone. I'll provide you all the necessary link. Don't forget to read all the guidelines before using the app.

Thanks for your reply but I have already gone through this post but as I mentioned problem is that PC doesn't detects it even when I put the Tab in DL mode. Is there any method to root it? So that I could use Mobile Odin to restock it.
It is an usb-driver problem and not rooting, I'm 99% sure of it. It's the PC that HAS to find the Tab first.

I've tried on another PC and with another USB cable but in vain. Other Smartphones connect it without any problem.
Any smartphone or the P1000 are not the same. I have had on multiple occasions that even Samsung Kies did not recognise it and had to reinstall Kies. Same for the Samsung Mobile phones drivers. And don't forget to reboot your PC after installing drivers.
Keep on trying because it is still going into download mode and logic tells it should be accessible. Does the PC give a notification like driver not found or similar?
NO.

No. There's no activity in PC when I connect it. It neither shows new hardware found nor any other notification like unrecognized device etc.
BTW I have reinstalled Kies, updated it, uninstalled it, installed separate drivers for Samsung USB but no gain...
One last option, let the battery become completely empty (0% charge). Recharge and try again, it rescued my tab once after a bad flash.
That is to my knowledge the last resort.
Alas!

What version of windows are you on? Because windows 8 is a *****, Vista or 7 should work.
(Or GNU-Linux). And have you tried Heimdall already? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1323527
Heimdall download https://code.google.com/p/heimdall-one-click/downloads/list
Get a stock ROM and how to use Heimdall (these are old instructions so there could be newer versions available).
-----------Heimdall install instructions ------------------
1. Download Heimdall.
2. Download Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package (x86) and install it. Download it here List All Devices.
5. From the USB Device list chose "Samsung USB Composite DEvice".
6. Press "Install Driver", click "Yes" to the prompt and if you receive
a message about being unable to verify the publisher of the driver
click "Install this driver software anyway".
7. Done. This only needs to be done once.
-----------How to use Heimdall-------------------------
1. Put your tab into download mode - Power off Tab, once powered down hold power and the volume down button at the same time. You will see a android digging.
2. Start Heimdall
3. Hook your tab up to your PC or MAC and you will see a progress bar. That must say Ready to get heimdall to work.
4. Find you Firmware and unzip it until you see the following files below.
(NOTE: when you first unzip your firmware it may unzip into a .tar file unzip the .tar file to get the files below.)
a. Zimage
b. FactoryFS.rfs
c. Param.lfs
d. Boot.bin
e. SBL.bin - not always included
f. cacher.rfs
g. dbdata
h. modem.bin - not always included
5. Place each of those files in their correct spot and hit start.
ONE BIG NOTE: if you use a PIT file do NOT select repartition. It might brick your tab as heimdall has a problem when selecting repartition w/ a pit file. It is ok to use the pit file just make sure repartition is unchecked.
(Use ODIN for repartition with pit)
Got it working...
Thanks buddy, I bought a half dozen of USB cables for the tab and got it working with one of them at last... I don't know but I thought it was the last way out to try different cables... And at last, I got it working after long...
Please let me know the correct way of rooting, as DoomLord v. 4 has already failed to root it. Please guide if possible... I have a Ragers (Canada) Tab. GT-P1000R
